  As suggested to someone last week w/the same problem, getta hold
of the setserial program. It should be on the CLI, or available via
Public Domain. I'll assume your printer handles traditional RS232
RTS/CTS flow control. Enable that on the Amiga side by typing:
  setserial 10 x84
->should be fine. BTW, what's so wrong with 300 baud??? Ya gotta die
sometime... :-(
